Most Catholics need· ito reminder that this is not

The heart is the special symbol of love. And, If the
Heart of Christ means anything, it means not only His
emptying of Himself and going to the extremes of love for
men. It indicates· also the love' of the Father whQ wo.uid

How to Stop Avalanche of Junk

Nun Teacher Has
Word of Praise

By Mary Tinley Daly

Did you ever have the impulse to shout, "Oh, stop it!M
at your television set? Or even descend to "Shut up!"? The
uuseating stream of violence, the glorification of crime and
triminals, the over-adulation ()f mediocre "stars," and the
endless parade of trivia find "then I'll set the· table," "dust

Children to enjOy; that the young people of
America will not be overwhelm'ed by an avalanche of demoralking junk.
Quality ProP'lUD!J
This past year, fortunately,
ftlere have been some programs

family and its friends can enjoy.
('We note here, as an example,
the exceptionally fine "Age of

"'Make a schedule, see that they

the arm of the sofa, right next to
the TV set. "Just want to see
. tbJs one out," she would say.

many. hours had been spent and
how much junk bad been absorbed through those intent eyeballs!
Now. a fresh wind of hope
comes, fortunately, just· as another Summer approaches. Two
perceptive and clear-thinking
new figures of stature agree that
television is Cheating the people
.of their natural right-the air
waves. Both LeRoy Collins, former Governor of Florida, new
president 'of the National Association of Broadcasters, and the
new chairman of the FCC, Newton N. Minow, are determined to
restore right order-televisionwise.
Intelligent Approach
To quote the head of the FCC:
"I intend to find out· whether
the people care . : . whether the
community which each broadcaster serves believes he has
been serving the public interest
. . . when a renewal (of station
license) is set for hearing. I intend - wherever possible - to
hold a well-advertised public
hearing, right.in the community
you (the statimls) have. promised
.to serve. I want the people who
own the air and. the homes that
television enters to tell you and
the FCC what's going on."
Chairman Minnow and Mr. Collins have spoken forthrightly,
undoubtedly causing conStema:"
tion in the camps of the television indu!JUy against which we,
the parents of young America,
have seethed.
No longer need we mutter,
"Ob, stop it!" as we shut off the

seta.
With an intelligent approach
the problem, we can monitor
sets, note time, prog:ram approval or disapproval-and why.
We can write Chairmaa Minow
at the Federal Communications
C~mission, Washington 25, D.
C and find ,out from him when
the licenrteS of our particular
television stations are due for
renewal. W~ then enlist the help
of local groups--clvic, PTA,

the local stations as to what we
want and do not want to view

End in Scandal
Some adults act as though It
is natural for a child to lie and
cheat, the Bishop declared. "All
lies are unnatural. There exist.
no human being more honest
than an unspoiled child. From
the first day in the cradle every child should be taught that
among the worst sins one of the '
most shameful is, lying. Ami
cheating in school work is ~
way of lying."
Bishop Helmsing emphasize4
that the Church since its earHest days has taught lying i8
never permissible. He said that
cheating in school violates the
rights of others and hurts the
individual himself.
The prelate recalled cheating
led to the scandal of American
soldiers deserting their country
in .Korea, the present college
basketball scandal, "the craf'S deceit on the TV give-away programs." He also recalled the
scandal some years, ago of West
Point cadets cheating in school
work.
False Standards
Bishop Helmsing deplored "the
patently dishonest talk of some
politicians," the "sham of abusing the Fifth Amendment" of the
Constitution and the "unwhole.some veneer of our advertising
world which sets out to set up
false standards simply for Uwl
sake of profit."
He said there are too manr,
elements in the world which
consider the old fashioned idea
of honesty as "old hat."

By Most Rev. Fultml J.

By Msgr. George G. Higgins

Modem advertising, as it appears on television, never aekI
that you buy ''Sudsy Suds" because "if it were not for 'Suasy SUds'
you would not be enjoying this program." No man who watches a
prize fight on T.V. is asked' to buy a ra~ because the company
that manufactures them is bringing him the bout. There is never
any concrete relatioIHIhip established between the benefactor in this instance, the advertiser - and the viewer - the prospective
buyer. Perhaps the realOn is that our modern world of advertising
is not very clQsely related to ethical and moral considerations.
Hence, it does not say: "Since you have been entertained, remember
us."

LONDON (NC) - Dr.
Geoffrey Fisher said shortly
before his retirement as
· Archbishop of Canterbury

"'J,.

that time will bring the Church
of England 'and the Catholic
Church closer together.
"As soon as you try to get on
with other people, you don't
change your doctrine but somehow it adjusts itself," he said' on
nationwide television interview.
The retiring Anglican Prima.te
of All England was asked about
· differences in doctrine over
"family planning." He replied
that family ,planning means parents must not commit themselves .
to having as many children as
.. they can physically produce, that
they must exercise restraint and
to that extent plan their family..
Agreement
"On that matter the Church of
· Rome and ourselves are com· pletely agreed," he said.
'''Only, unfortunately, they by
family planning mean adopting a
-certain method of family plan· ning. We think that certain
· m~thods are legitimate snd
· can be' used in a Christian
manner, and they think they
can't· be.
'
"That's a dispute aboUt ways
· and means, and you can always
get on with people who differ
about ways and means. But if
you analyze it. there's no difference of principle between us all."

Father Considine

Men of Good Will
He said that although Catholics "may be involved to an exceptional degree" in the present
conflict over Federal aid to education, the controversy is not a
denominational one "but one
which embraces men of good
will from all religions."
"Catholics ,today," he sta~ed,
"are standing for a principle
whic4 is common to all religious
people and which has played an
important part in the development of our reverent American
culture. In the present case, the,
con'flict, where it exists, is not
between major groups, but be-,
tween -the religious and the sec'uIarists." ,
Msgr, Kelly urged all together
to "move on to deal with this,
problem in the spirit of Justice
William O. Douglas who said:
'When' the state encourages reli~
gious instruction ... it follows the
best of our traditions.' "

The separation of Church and
State, which was intended, to
protect ,religious freedom, in
their hands becomes the constitutional basis for the secuiarization of American cul~ure, and
they are using the public schools
as the chief instruments for the
propagation of their dogmas."
Msgr. Kelly l.ashed out also at
the viewpoint 'holding "religion
to be a private affair, which
rarely, if ever, should be allowed
to intrude in the marketplace. or
into' affairs of the commonwealth."
.
Secularistie

'The theory that the State may

"Stripped of its nicety of expression," he stated, -dihis ideol:..
